Barbecue Chicken Doritos Snack Recipes

SPICY DORITOS® CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place an oven-proof rack on top of a baking sheet.
• Beat egg, water, and cayenne pepper together in a shallow bowl. Mix nacho cheese-flavored chips, bread crumbs, and black pepper together in a separate shallow bowl. Dip chicken into egg mixture until coated; transfer to chip mixture and press to fully cover on both sides. Place coated chicken on the wire rack.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

THE ULTIMATE BARBECUED CHICKEN

Steps:

• For the brine, in a mixing bowl combine the water, salt, sugar, garlic, and thyme. Transfer the brine to a 2-gallon sized re-sealable plastic bag. Add the chicken, close the bag and refrigerate 2 hours (if you've only got 15 minutes, that's fine) to allow the salt and seasonings to penetrate the chicken.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. Wrap the bacon around the bunch of thyme and tie with kitchen twine so you have a nice bundle. Heat about 2 tablespoons of oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the thyme and cook slowly 3 to 4 minutes to render the bacon fat and give the sauce a nice smoky taste. Add the onion and garlic and cook slowly without coloring for 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients, give the sauce a stir, and turn the heat down to low. Cook slowly for 20 minutes to meld the flavors. Once the sauce is done cooking, remove about 1 1/2 cups of the sauce and reserve for serving along side the chicken at the table. The rest of the barbecue sauce will be used for basing the legs.
• Preheat oven 375 degrees F.
• Preheat a grill pan or an outdoor gas or charcoal barbecue to a medium heat. Take a few paper towels and fold them several times to make a thick square. Blot a small amount of oil on the paper towel and carefully and quickly wipe the hot grates of the grill to make a nonstick surface. Take the chicken out of the brine, pat it dry on paper towels. Arrange the chicken pieces on the preheated grill and cook, turn once mid-way, and cook for a total of 10 minutes. Transfer the grill marked chicken to a cookie sheet and then place in the oven. Cook the chicken for 15 minutes, remove it from the oven and then brush liberally, coating every inch of the legs with the barbecue sauce and then return to the oven for 25 to 30 more minutes, basting the chicken for a second time half way through remaining cooking time. Serve with extra sauce.

DORITO CHICKEN

Steps:

• Crush doritos, enough to just cover the bottom of a 2 quart casserole.
• Mix all other ingredients, except cheese, and place on top of doritos.
• Crush another layer of doritos on top.
• Sprinkle cheese over all.
• Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

DORITOS CHICKEN BITES WITH 1UP SAUCE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Place the doritos in a food processor (or use a large resealable bag and rolling pin to finely crush the chips) and blitz until the chips become a fine crumb. Transfer the pulsed chips to a bowl. Add the flour and eggs to their own respective bowls, then begin breading the chicken. Dip each piece of chicken in the flour, then the egg, then the chip crumbs and toss around to coat evenly. Repeat for each piece of chicken, then transfer to a parchment lined baking tray. Bake for 14 - 16 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees.
• While the chicken bakes, start to make the 1UP sauce. In a food processor combine the mayo, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, salt, and blue cheese. Pulse well to combine evenly, then transfer to your serving bowl and set aside.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the hot sauce and melted butter. When the chicken bites are cooked, remove from the oven and toss in the hot sauce and butter. Top with freshly sliced chives and serve alongside the 1UP sauce.
• Enjoy!
